A's share : B's share : C's share
= (20000 x 12) : (25000 x 4) : (15000 x 8)
= 240000 : 100000 : 120000
= 24 : 10 : 12 = 12 : 5 : 6
Let A's share = 12N
B's share = 5N
C's share = 6N
According to the question.
12N + 5N + 6N = 23000Correct Option: C
A's share : B's share : C's share
= (20000 x 12) : (25000 x 4) : (15000 x 8)
= 240000 : 100000 : 120000
= 24 : 10 : 12 = 12 : 5 : 6
Let A's share = 12N
B's share = 5N
C's share = 6N
According to the question.
12N + 5N + 6N = 23000
⇒ 23N = 23000
∴ N = 23000/23 = 1000
∴ C's share = 6N = 6 x 1000 = ₹ 6000

Ratio of equivalent capitals of A, B and C = (35000 x 12) : (20000 x 5) : (15000 x 7)
= 35 x 12 : 20 x 5 : 15 x 7
= 84 : 20 : 21
Let A's share = 84N
B's share = 20N
C's share = 21N
According to the question,
84N + 20N + 21N = 84125Correct Option: C
Ratio of equivalent capitals of A, B and C = (35000 x 12) : (20000 x 5) : (15000 x 7)
= 35 x 12 : 20 x 5 : 15 x 7
= 84 : 20 : 21
Let A's share = 84N
B's share = 20N
C's share = 21N
According to the question,
84N + 20N + 21N = 84125
⇒ 125N = 84125
⇒ N = 84125/125 = 673
∴ B's share = 20N = (20 x 673) = ₹ 13460

A's share : B's share : C's share
= [16000 x 3 + (16000 - 5000) x 9] : [12000 x 3 + (12000 + 5000) x 9] : (21000 x 6)
= (16 x 3 + 11 x 9) : (12 x 3 + 17 x 9) : (21 x 6)
= 147 : 189 : 126
= 7 : 9 : 6Correct Option: B
A's share : B's share : C's share
= [16000 x 3 + (16000 - 5000) x 9] : [12000 x 3 + (12000 + 5000) x 9] : (21000 x 6)
= (16 x 3 + 11 x 9) : (12 x 3 + 17 x 9) : (21 x 6)
= 147 : 189 : 126
= 7 : 9 : 6
Hence, B's share exceeds C's share by = {13200/(7 + 9 + 6)} x (9 - 6)
= (13200 x 3)/22
= ₹ 1800

Let investment of B be a for b months.
Then, A's investment = 3a for 2b months
∴ A : B = (3a x 2b) : (a x b) = 6ab : ab = 6 : 1
Let the total profit = m.
Then. m x 1/7 = 6000Correct Option: B
Let investment of B be a for b months.

∴ A : B = (3a x 2b) : (a x b) = 6ab : ab = 6 : 1
Let the total profit = m.
Then. m x 1/7 = 6000
∴ m = 6000 x 7 = ₹ 42000
∴ 20% of 42000 = ₹ 8400

Given. ratio = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5
= (7/2) x 30 : (4/3) x 30 : (6/5) x 30
= 105 : 40 : 36
Let investment of Amitabh = 105k
Investment of Kamlesh = 36k
Ratio of their investments
= [105k x 4 + 150% x8 of 105k] : (40k x 12) : (36k x 12)
= (420k + (150/100) x 105k x 8) : (480k) : (432k)
= (1680k) : (480k) : (432k)
= 35 : 10 : 9Correct Option: C
Given. ratio = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5
= (7/2) x 30 : (4/3) x 30 : (6/5) x 30
= 105 : 40 : 36
Let investment of Amitabh = 105k
Investment of Kamlesh = 36k
Ratio of their investments
= [105k x 4 + 150% x8 of 105k] : (40k x 12) : (36k x 12)
= (420k + (150/100) x 105k x 8) : (480k) : (432k)
= (1680k) : (480k) : (432k)
= 35 : 10 : 9
∴ Brijesh's share
= (21600 x 10) / (35 + 10 + 9)
= (21600 x 10) / 54
= ₹ 4000
